Priscilla Kelly recently shared her reaction to seeing herself in a WWE video game for the first time and getting her first action figure. Kelly made her WWE video game debut as Gigi Dolin in WWE 2K23. She went on to appear in every iteration of the game up to WWE 2K25, after which she was released from the company last year.
Kelly was asked during her interview with Randy Zellea for Back Sports Page about being part of the WWE game series and getting an action figure. She noted that she loved being able to play the game with her brother and his having an action figure of her. You can see the highlights below:
On Maintaining Her Passion For Wrestling When The Business Side Gets Hard:
“It’s very hard, and that’s been a big struggle of mine. Wrestling is very much a roller coaster. Sometimes you’re on top of the world, and sometimes you’re at the lowest of lows. You start questioning everything about yourself and why you’re doing this.
“But honestly, the biggest reward is on those bad days when I’m not feeling great or I’m asking myself, ‘Am I good enough? Am I doing enough?’ Then I come out and meet some of these fans who are so excited to meet me. It’s honestly the fans that lift me up when I’m at my lowest points, and they’re what keeps me going. And that’s genuine. That’s not me trying to babyface the interview. It really is.”
On Her Reaction To Seeing Herself in a Wrestling Game For the First Time:
“Oh, yeah [that was cool]. I think the best part about being in a video game and having an action figure is that my brother gets to play as me. We used to play WWE games growing up, and now he gets to play as me in the game. He gets to have an action figure of me. When I was growing up, he would have action figures of all these other girls, and now I’m one of those girls. So it’s really cool.”
On If Having an Action Figure & Being in a Game Was Part of the Dream:
“Definitely. Being in a video game and having an action figure are two huge bucket-list things as a wrestler.”
